    Taking a jab flush in the face from Vlad would be like taking a straight right hand (or left if there southpaw) from what fighter?

    Floyd?
    Pavlik?
    Oscar?
    Pac?
    Froch?

    who?

    I would say Pav.

    Pav got a mean straight right, and Klit got a power-punch jab

    I don't think Wlad's (or anyone's) jab is that hard. Wlad does indeed have a powerful jab, but a cross punch is so much more powerful due to putting the body weight behind it. I'd wager the straight right, even from a small fighter, is more powerful than a heavyweight's jab.

    Let's put it this way. If Floyd Mayweather (probably the lightest hitter on that list) hit me flush with a straight right, I'd probably be knocked out. But If Wlad hit me with a [one] jab, I'd probably just cry or fall down or something, maybe break my nose...

    classic

    great thread. just guessing of course but i'd say the average heavyweight jab is probably equal to the straight right of a super-middle. as wlad's got a decent jab i'd say Pavlik

    Wlad's jab is beastly, and i don't even rate Wlad as a very good fighter

    you're either very modest, or very chinny.

    seriously though jesus a straight right from a guy like Pavlik would be so much harder than a Klit jab, like twice as hard I would say at most.

    EDIT: sorry I mean at LEAST

    i reckon a a jab from Vlad would certainly drop if not ko the average man.

    It dropped and KO'd professionals, think KILL an average man is the result.
